Helga's Tandoori Chicken

25. February, 2009

If there is any meal my husband calls his absolute favourite, it's this one. Unfortunately I can't take credit for the recipe since I got it from a former employer of mine in Iceland. It is a very light meal, packed with protein and calcium. It's the perfect meal to make if you have a whole, grilled chicken lying around. This is a slightly sweet recipe so I always serve it with a brown rice, green salad with something like cherry tomatoes or olives as well as a sliced baguette. This former employer is also a friend of ours and once she and her husband came to stay for a couple of nights when we were studying in London. Helga made this recipe one night and I thought Jóhannes (my husband) would die of happiness. I made a salad for me and dipped the bread in the sauce and I must admit, it tasted amazing.

You will need one cooked chicken for this recipe and you will also need an ovenproof baking dish.
